Answer:

It would be appropriate for her to take this training because...

Step-by-step explanation:

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is an advanced form of flexibility training, which involves both the stretching and contracting of the muscle group being targeted. So Anna would be in better shape and condition if she took this way of training. Plus if would make her stretch which means when she enters the test again she would be average or over average.
